“The Pacific Rim Championships will provide a benchmark to see where I’m at, and to see where I need to improve ahead of the other major international competitions this year,” said Rizzo.

“To be put under pressure this early in the year and to go to the Commonwealth Games with one major international competition already under my belt will be invaluable.

“It will be great to compete in front of a home crowd in Melbourne. It can be nerve racking but it can also lift you up and to have the world’s best compete in Australia will hopefully inspire the next generation of young gymnasts.”

Congratulations to the girls! Hope you can all do your best tomorrow!

When you consider that 6 of our best seniors are injured (including the whole worlds team), along with the Brennan/Russell possibilities, we are really not looking too shabby. Some nice scores for the juniors, too.
